蘑菇短视频 PROMS 2011
Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London
Presented by Christopher Cook
Continuing Proms Choral Sundays: Mark Wigglesworth conducts a recreation of an all-Britten concert originally conducted in 1963 by the composer, but with a contemporary twist provided by Joby Talbot, revisiting Britten's great hero Purcell. For Britten, the Spring Symphony represented 'the reawakening of the earth and life', while the Cantata Misericordium tells the Biblical story of the Good Samaritan.
